About the D90 Code Range
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Beam Radiation (D90) refers to delivering targeted radiation beams to specific body parts for therapeutic purposes. This root operation is classified under Radiation Therapy and commonly applies to treatment of cancers in the ear, nose, mouth, and throat regions.
Beam Radiation involves using various types of radiation, such as photons, electrons, heavy particles (protons or ions), neutrons, and neutron capture techniques. The included codes specify treatment by body part, such as the Ear (e.g., D9001ZZ for photons 1-10 MeV), Nose (D9014ZZ for heavy particles), Hypopharynx, Oral Cavity, Larynx, and Salivary Glands. Approaches also distinguish between standard and intraoperative radiation delivery, for example, electrons administered intraoperatively to the Ear (D9003Z0). This specificity in the radiation therapy codes supports precise documentation of the type of radiation, energy level, and anatomical site treated, crucial for clinical reporting and treatment planning.
Questions About This Page
How many billable codes are in the D90 range?
Of the 97 codes in this range, 96 are billable and valid for inpatient claim submission from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026. Table header codes group them but cannot be reported on claims.
What does the D90 range classify?
The range classifies Beam Radiation procedures, a type of radiation therapy that uses a machine to aim high-energy rays at the cancer from outside of the body, performed on the ear, nose, mouth and throat. Each code adds the body part, approach, device, and qualifier in characters four through seven, and links to its own reference page.
